Thanks for pointing out. On my comment i said "i'm not into this manhua", tbh idk whats the reason back then, err i don't mean to say its bad, just as u said the story has a good potential but dunno why i just feel like something is lacking. After i read ur comment, i think this is it.
Still, i love ethan, i mean his character so unique and deep. Also jimmy and blue so suitable to be a main character which is have impact for ethan's life. It would be more better if the story more focus to 3 of them.
I said better, then its mean its not bad, right. still appreciate their hardwork (=・ω・=)
Yeah, author-nim really wanna show that even though Ethan had been abused, but he always surrounded by kind hearted person and they always worried and feels responsible to take care of Ethan. However, in my opinion, Author-nim should reduce the meaningless dialog or any unimportant action. For example most scene at the cafe, about the cousin especially, they only reduce the slot for Ethan. Maybe Author-nim could change to the perspective by using Blue, how he could see how people cared bout Ethan, and in the same time, he could see Ethan actually trouble by the kindness. But this just merely my opinion and no effect to the others. Author-nim however have their own perspective to tell the story. Author-nim feels that was the best way to portrayed their story. Haha
I love the idea of this story and the ending especially. But in my opinion Author-nim was greedy that they tried to put as many as characters they can and tried to make that character looks important by adding some background and serious dialog but in the end most of the characters not as much important exactly. Author-nim was just wasting the slot for the matter. They should stress on main character especially Jimmy and how relationship between Jimmy and Ethan develop.
Instead a meaningless dialog between unimportant character, Author-nim should focus on; in my opinion 3 main character; which is Ethan (the victim), Jimmy (the one who heal Ethan) and Blue (the one who tried to fill holes in Ethan heart).
So much potential was wasted, but the ideas was really good and the ending really suitable with the title <3 (≧∀≦)
